Question at Issue Between Property Owners and Bor ough Council Lemojne, Pu„ April 23.—Regard less of being favored by a majority of the residents of Hummel avenuo and Rostmoyne street and members of the board of health, council re fuses point blank to give any finan cial assistance to placing oil on these two streets in an effort to abate the dust, which is becoming unbearable on an afternoon with much auto mobile traffic. The Welfare I-eague of Lemoyne, j represented by a committee went | before council at its last meeting to ask assistance and council in a ■ j much hurried vote, refused to assist | in the oiling proposition, all agree- 1 ing that this would delay the pav- 1 ing of Hummel avenue. Dr. Edgar S. Ev-erhart, chairman of the com mittee from the League, will make a j report of the conference with coun cil at a meeting of the League in the schoolbuilding to-night. President Warren Fisliel, president of Council, was asked his opinion of oil and said that he does not favor it inasmuch as it would not be per manent. He said that if the resi-1 dents of Hummel avenue would pay' for paving in front of their property: less the eight feet of trolley track, ' council would at once proceed with j the work. James A. Pryor, a prominent member of council and a resident of Hummel avenue does not favor oil. j He is of the same opinion as the president regarding permanent pav- ! ing. He said so far as he knows council would be glad 'to pave the street on the plan of property hold-: ers paying all. Councilm;u George who lives in the hpart of the dust nuisance in Hummel avenue, said he favored i oil as a temporary relief. He also' favors paving. The Welfare League to-night will t start petitions in circulation on the j two streets to ascertain how many' residents will be willing to pay for 1 1 two applications of oil. A commit j tee from the League will go before I council with the petitions and ask, I the borough fathers if they Will as j sist the League by removing the I j rough surface on the street. The League will elect officers to- | I night. Man Killed, Girl Badly Hurt When Automobile Rolls Over Embcnkment j William S. Swope, of Hummelstown. j was killed, and Miss Anna Stroup, nf !
